Strategic Funding Plans Designed for Growth, Protection, and Peace of Mind.

Send Them to College Without Sacrificing Your Retirement.

The Dilemma:

Tuition vs. Retirement

Every year, families in the New York-New Jersey area are forced to make a heart-wrenching choice: fund their child’s education or secure their own future. With 30 years of industry experience, Glenn V. Castillo and Castillo Financial Group prove you don’t have to choose. We help you build a strategy where your money does double duty—securing a degree for them and a legacy for you.

Our Solution:

Your Personal Pension Plan

We specialize in converting a portion of your retirement assets into a Guaranteed Income Stream. Using a combination of Fixed Indexed Annuities and Income Riders, we create a "Retirement Income Floor" that covers your essential expenses for as long as you live.

The Financial Aid Advantage

Unlike 529 plans, the cash value in an IUL is typically not counted as an asset on the FAFSA. This can significantly increase your child’s eligibility for need-based financial aid.

Market-Protected Growth

Your college fund is shielded from market crashes. We use an "indexed floor" strategy so your savings only move in one direction—up.

Ultimate Flexibility

If your child receives a full scholarship or chooses a different path, that money isn't "trapped." It remains yours to use for retirement, a home down payment, or any other goal without heavy penalties.

Tax-Free Distributions

Access your funds tax-free to pay for tuition, room, board, and books.
